Life and career

[edit]

Tomasyn Hayes[3] was born on January 2, 1997[4][5] in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where they were also raised. As a child, they wrote raps and attended rap cyphers. Hayes has described themself during their youth as "a raw ass kid growing up too fast".[6] While teaching prosthetic makeup at a middle school, Hayes began working professionally as a painter and make-up artist in 2017, also working as a model.[7][8][9]

Hayes released their debut single as LustSickPuppy, "Goatmeal", and an accompanying music video in May 2020, which preceded their debut extended play, Cosmic Brownie, released on June 1, 2020.[3] Their single "BustDuster" was released in July 2021.[10] In 2022, they toured as an opening act, first for Dorian Electra and later for Machine Girl, and released their second EP, As Hard As You Can.[11] After it was announced in March 2024, their self-produced first studio album, Carousel from Hell, was released on April 26 of the same year.[12] It was preceded by the singles "Blisster", "Chokehold", and "Exes".[13]

Artistry

[edit]

For Vogue, Janelle Okwodu described Hayes's art as "impulsive, convoluted, and chaotic".[7] They frequently wear smiley or juggalo-inspired clown face paint while performing.[14][15] Hayes based their stage name on their Instagram username, which they had put "no real thought" into until they started to perform music.[16]

Hayes has described their music as "pretty genre-less" and has called their combination of genres "genrefucking".[6] Raphael Helfand of The Fader described their music as "a combination of hellacious beats and cracked, unhinged vocals" and described their "sex-crazed-canine persona" as having "an extremely specific self-mythology".[17][18] For the Chicago Reader, Micco Caporale described their music as "a perfect marriage between club-kid uncanniness and Juggalo attitude"; Leah Mandel, for Pitchfork, wrote that their music "typically exerts a hyper-confident lusty indignation" and "always [has] humor". Their music is largely digital hardcore and hip hop and also has elements of heavy metal, jungle, breakcore, nu metal, harsh noise, and electronic music.[19][11][20][13][10] They have cited Missy Elliott as an influence on their music and image.[16]
